Fine Art and High Finance: Expert Advice on the Economics of Ownership

Art and finance coalesce in the elite world of fine art collecting
and investing. Investors and collectors can’t protect and
profit from their collections without grappling with a range of
complex issues like risk, insurance, restoration, and conservation.
They require intimate knowledge not only of art but also of
finance.
